Welcome to Belmont online!
Belmont Synagogue is an orthodox community of six hundred families in north-west London founded in the mid-1960s. We have a wide range of communal activities including daily services, educational programmes and special activities for all age groups. The community is led by Rabbi Marc Levene and his wife Lisa, as well as Chairman, David Lerner, and a Board of Management. No longer one of the best kept secrets in the United Synagogue, we are surrounded by excellent Jewish primary and secondary schools. Belmont is also surrounded by an eruv, which connects to other local eruvim and makes it easier to celebrate Shabbat with friends and family. You will find more about Belmont on this website but the best way to get to know us it to visit. We promise you a very warm welcome. Refurbishment building works Starting just after Pesach, the building works in the main hall for the refurbishment will be getting underway. The building work to make our main hall more accessible and renew its appearance includes a lower Bimah, bookcases on all of our Mechitzahs, a lower front platform and new Aron Hakodesh. We apologise for the inconvenience that some of this work will cause for members, including that it will not be possible during the course of the week to have any programmes with children in the hall, until the work is completed by the scheduled date of 31 May. It is hoped that there will be some painting and decorative works after Shavuot. It will be possible to hold adult events, including our Yom Hashoah and Yom Ha’atzmaut programmes planned for 1 and 9 May. Shabbat and Sunday morning services will continue as normal in the main hall.
